Hello, I finally had time to read over Lion's page at
LionKimbro (after hearing echos of some sort of happening concerning that stuff that took place while I was gone), and I found that I shared a large part of this vision of a syndicated future.
More about me, and contact info, is on my personal homepage, at

No aggregator yet
Currently I haven't found an aggregator that I like enough to start using, so I'm afraid I'll still be mostly checking only one wiki (MeatBall).
I think that NewsMonster will be the one for me. I think aggregation can benefit from browser integration. Unfortunately, I run Debian stable and testing, and NewsMonster requires Mozilla 1.1, which is only available in Debian unstable. I'm too conservative to upgrade Mozilla to the unstable branch. So I think I've decided to wait until 1.1 is available in Debian testing before using an aggregator. However, I might be open to suggestions for a good ChangeAggregator. My minimal criteria are:
* Runs on GNU/Linux.
* Free software.
* Client-side.
* Still being developed.
(Discussion on news aggregators moved to NewsAggregators.)
